IND vs ENG 3rd Test: England unveil playing XI

As per a TOI report, the Indian management is comfortable with a slow turner rather than having a raging turner on the Rajkot pitch.

The wicket at the venue is known for being batting friendly. However, the spinners are expected to come into play during the latter stages of the game. The teams winning the toss have gone on to post big totals on the board.

England XI: Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope, Joe Root, Jonny Bairstow, Ben Stokes (C), Ben Foakes, Rehan Ahmed, Tom Hartley, Mark Wood, James Anderson
